    You're attempting to do DNS tunneling.  We talk about it a bit in one of the live shows, originally it was TomB who gave me the idea.

    There are some good guides linked in one of the threads talking about it on here, and I think the show notes too for that particular episode (7 or 8 maybe?).

    I haven't tinkered with it in awhile, but essentially you need to have access to a server running DNS where you nave full access to edit the A/CNAME/etc on it, or use Dynamic DNS and do the same.

    Anyone want to help me understand some code?

    I have a good grasp on reading most code, just curious if anyone feels like breaking down exactly what this is doing?

    ction.getSelectedElement()||dojo.html.selection.getParentElement();
while(node){
if(dojo.html.selection.isTag(node,arguments).length>0){
return node;
}
node=node.parentNode;
}
return null;
},isTag:function(node,tags){
if(node&&node.tagName){
for(var i=0;i<tags.length;i++){
if(node.tagName.toLowerCase()==String(tags[i]).toLowerCase()){
return String(tags[i]).toLowerCase();
}
}
}
return "";
},selectElement:function(_25b){
var _25c=dojo.global();
var _25d=dojo.doc();
_25b=dojo.byId(_25b);
if(_25d.selection&&dojo.body().createTextRange){
try{
var _25e=dojo.body().createControlRange();
_25e.addElement(_25b);
_25e.select();
}
catch(e){
dojo.html.selection.selectElementChildren(_25b);
}
}else{
if(_25c["getSelection"]){
var _25f=_25c.getSelection();
if(_25f["removeAllRanges"]){
var _25e=_25d.createRange();
_25e.selectNode(_25b);
_25f.removeAllRanges();
_25f.addRange(_25e);
}
}
}
},selectElementChildren:function(_260){
var _261=dojo.global();
var _262=dojo.doc();
_260=dojo.byId(_260);
if(_262.selection&&dojo.body().createTextRange){
var _263=dojo.body().createTextRange();
_263.moveToElementText(_260);
_263.select();
}else{

    The last hak5 live?

    There is a lot more the community could be doing to further itself.  One thing i've noticed over the years with online communities is that the most successful ones rely the most on the userbase to drive the train, so to speak.  I've helped to build a few myself, and if the powers-that-be try to do too much to influence what's going on, things tend to die off, so it's best that they simply provide an environment and a little kick to the ass now and then, but letting the users drive.

    I would be willing to dedicate some time into managing a team of volunteers that desires to keep content updated and to work on things to make the experience here that much better, but I cannot devote the kind of time required to do it all myself due to work, relationships, and the show.

    Linux on Xserve?

    in Questions

    Posted

    Has anyone installed a linux distribution on Apple Xserve hardware?  The EFI is really killing me as I don't know how to get the installation going on that.  My boss wants CentOS but I'd be willing to install any distribution that works on the hardware.

    Thanks!

    Anyone want to volunteer to enter all these configurations into a spreadsheet and figure out what the most common things are?  Would be neat to have it in a database format to compare and pull statistics from.

    We actually have a Win 2003 server install with a whole bunch of the same antivirus software running on it that virustotal has, inhouse.  We have some scripts setup to where you can upload malicious files and the server scans it and outputs the identification result.  There are some things in place which reset the machine back to a known-to-be-clean baseline after each scan.

    Yeah I was pretty fucking fucked, lol.

    Next time we will have stuff prepared ahead of time.  I mean even now I cannot believe I didn't think to just start talking FPS in general, but my brain was not functioning that evening.
